International Women's Day

Following a successful first appearance in 2014, the International Women’s Collaborative Brew Day is set to return on International Women’s Day, Sunday 8 March.

The brainchild of Sophie de Ronde, then of Brentwood Brewing Co, and now with Muntons the maltsters, Project Venus, the UK/Irish women’s brewing association, teamed up with the US-based Pink Boots Society for this annual event to raise the profile of women in brewing.

From 70-plus in 2014, the number of breweries involved this year has risen beyond 80 at the time of writing. Eleven countries are involved,...

Over a dozen brewsters in the UK are joining up with dozens of fellow brewsters around the world for the world's first International Women’s Collaboration Brew on March 8th. To celebrate International Women's Day, brewsters in Britain, Ireland, Italy, United States, Canada will be joining their sisters in Australia, New Zealand and Japan to create Unite Pale Ale. All will brew to the same recipe using Cascade hops, allowing each of them a chance to put their own take on this 4% beer.
